THE THREE FACES. By Helen Nicholson. f(011inr. 7s. 6d.)—This is
a tale of love,- adventure and nn;sten, brightened by occasional flashes of humour and full of exeitik, situations. Those who , enjoy .a. thriller, that has at the same time a literary flavour, will delight in the adventures of Jacques Godet and Don Cipriano, his fellow-rescuer of distressed ladies. The two men meet by chance at the Inn of the That Faces in Granada, and together they explore the mysteris of the sinister .house Coitijo del Aire: Innocencia, one of the Spanish girls, is a delightful character, though one it tempted to doubt whether, as the author informs us, --00, could easily have lit a cigar from her eyes." The three face carved above the inn mantelpiece portray the same woman in three moods—joy, sorrow and resignation—and they have a subtle bearing upon the story itself.
